Less a review of The Adjustment Bureau, and more a discussion on free will vs sovereignty.

Time Loop

Calvinism and Arminianism are not the only options

5-point and 7-point Calvinism

Does God have a plan?

Did God ensure that Saul would accept him by appearing on the road to Damascus? Did that interfere with Saul's free will?

I'm guessing God had a good idea this was going to work out because there was a lot riding on Paul. Maybe there was a guy before Paul named Bob who was also persecuting Christians. He was the first choice. Yes. Paul was like the B team. Exactly. That's really sad. Bob the Pharisee on the road to Damascus. Jesus appears to him and, 'Eh'.

People have to have free will. Hmm...

Open Theism

Would it have been better for God to make all the choices for us?

Would you give up your free will if it meant everyone would be saved?

Is predestination unjust?

DeBonism "invented" (God elects, and those elect have the responsibility to make more elect)
